    There is no network issue in the UK or Europe in general . Sky Sports Box Office in the UK. The main problem i see is actually the US. DAZN or Showtime PPV.

    Warren was part of the $50,000,000 offer (Let's ignore how embarassing it is that Haymon is asking a pound shop version of Hearn for financial help) which included the fight being put on BT Sports.

    Joshua cannot fight on BT Sport.....
    Therefore the $50,000,000 offer becomes void.

    Hate Hearn. Yep I can get it. But to love Haymon? WTF is wrong with you? Look how much damage his in house PBC bull**** has done to boxing when it could of been the shot in the arm it needed.

    It's surprising how quickly people forget.


    Al Haymon is now seen as some boxing 'OG' now......

    Yet he's asking for financial support from Frank Warren ffs.

    Sounds like you got a problem with Haymon and how he spends his money or manages his business. It sounds like good business sense to me for him to solicit other investors.

    Lol Hearn has changed his story so many times it's laughable. Take what any of them say with a pinch of salt

    Actually Joshua COULD have fought on BT until recently Sky only had exclusive rights on fights that take place in UK.

    How hard is this to comprehend?

    I'll say this for about the 5th time.....Why would Sky allow him?

    Monopoly money doesn't count.
    There was never any offer.

    Sky didn't have the choice. How hard is that to comprehend?

    Pointless going back and forth with you. Until recently Sky only had exclusive with matchroom and AJ for fights on UK soil.

    And why would they allow him to fight on BT?

    They could just refuse.....are you really that unsure on how business operates?


    Joshua loses more than $50,000,000 by losing that contract with Sky.

    How can I make it more simple for you?

    I will repeat.

    Sky only had exclusive for fights ON UK SOIL.

    That has now, i assume, changed with the new contract.
